These new ceremic pads can last pretty long. My Honda has almost 70k miles and still plenty pads left.
Habe schon alle Marken durch von Brembo bis zu Zimmermann.... Nur ATE hats drauf, werde nur noch deren Bremsen kaufen.
ATE und Schluss aus. Damit hatte ich immer top Qualität und nie Probleme.
I just put some ATE pads on the rear. High quality for only $30.
When you need brake pads and rotors get ATE.
I used ATE ceramic pads on my mk7 pp and so far they are great. Barely any dust, no noticeable wear on the rotors after 3k miles, and no extra pedal pressure required.
Two rotors=$100. Set of pads about $50. Couple wrenches, jack and jack stands.
Even the parts prices are on a different level, ie brake pads with a Volvo logo on them - 160€, with ATE (they allegedly produce the original pads too) logo - 60€...
First set lasted 70k, the second set 50k as I was cheap and did the pad slap.
If there's a sore point on the Si, it's the brakes. It's that initial application is far too touchy, making smooth heel-and-toeing difficult especially when only light brake application is required. That abruptness proves annoying even in hard use, and the slightly spongy pedal feel doesn't help matters.
